Wow that pen looks wonderful, flex nibs are the coolest. This is my first fountain pen day, I got my first pen a little over a month ago. I plan on celebrating by buying a second pen and some ink that's a little prettier than my blue-black Skrip!

Sadly, Fountain Pen Day is already over here in Australia - and I was a bit too busy to celebrate it! At least I got to use a few of my pens, though - and enter a couple of Fountain Pen Day competitions!

I work at a rehab for teenagers. The kids find my fountain pens odd but amazing, because they are always asking about them. I plan on celebrating Fountain Pen Day by filling my pockets with cheap fountain pens from my very modest collection and letting the kids try them out.

I only just realized it was Fountain Pen day; I will take out my postcards and hand write them all in fountain pen ink and mail them today in honor.******************{in the contest I am Margot Core on the Rafflecopter}

Happy Fountain Pen Day! I already sent pictures of some of my new and favorite fountain pens and ink to two of my friends this morning. I am definitely a promoter of the almighty fountain pen to my friends. This morning I spent writing with my new Stipula Splash. I'm really loving this little mighty might of a fountain pen, love it!

You two are awesome by the way, and an amazing giveaway. Have a great Fountain Pen Day and weekend too!

I am only using fountain pens all day. I am also making every one of my friends and family members write at least a sentence with a fountain pen. I am determinded to convert them all to fountain pen users today!

I'm going to celebrate by writing EVERYTHING with fountain pens....except maybe my Statistics test scantron. And then staring longingly at all the beautiful fountain pens online and wishing I could buy them instead of paying rent.

I made all my notes with my fountain pen today! Also, all the editing that I did on my technical report today were done with my fountain pen :) bought myself a new fountain pen online with 3 different colours of ink, and watched some videos from Stephen Brown. My first time celebrating fountain pen day and I loved it!

I love your ink displays. You must have a lot of fun with all those inks and nibs to play with. Your handwriting is sooo much neater than mine. I have been too busy with other things for most of this year and my fountain pens have languished in their holders. I will celebrate fountain pen day by breaking out all my pens and reacquainting myself with them.

well first of all i ordered a lot of ink samples, pens, a blotter and some organic studio inks while they are still available....and then i filled up my noodler's ahab i got from a pen show for the first time and tried some flex writing

I'm having problems leaving comments on your and Stephen's Nibbage videos. They're great. You probably know that I'm a fan from way back. Ok, way back as far as 2012 is way back. You asked for suggestions for more videos. Here's one, based on the one you did on the Safari (great pen by the way. Yes, I collect them. Not as many as you, but collect them, along with other Lamy pens. They are great, reasonably priced pens). I digress. My suggestion is Nibbage reviews on pens less that $150. With the economy the way it is, I think people would respond more to these than the higher priced pens. Thanks.

Oooh... I almost missed this. I've got my eye on some pens for Christmas. What else would I ask for? Maybe a couple of notebooks too, and some paper, and some ink. Thank you for the inspiring giveaway, you're helping me to plan. :-)

I use fountain pens every day, one way or another. Why do I use a fountain pen? For the expressive writing and because they are retro cool. I love the feel of nib on paper. And they make me feel smart.

I have begun my Fountain Pen Day celebration by watching the delightful SBRE Brown fountain pen salute video! I am now entering to win all of the cool stuff that you are so kind to be giving away -- and, though I would love it for myself, I hope to win it all as a gift for my oh-so-sweet husband who got me hooked on fountain pens, and I will spend the remainder of the day writing notes and cards to friends with my several beloved fountain pens (color-coded ink color to pen color -- yeah, I'm a nerd). Happy Fountain Pen Day all!

I just recently got back into fountain pens since high school ohh wow that was 16 years ago. I didnt even realize everything I have been missing all these years. And as always i do enjoy all the blog posts and the videos that are wonderful to watch
